Elis James at the Just For Laughs London showcase
Note: This review is from 2010
Likeable Welshman Elis James’s ruse of opening with new material about Montreal, culled from Wikipedia, was ill-advised – but it did mean a welcome change when he relaxed into more tried-and tested material.
There’s not really much to his tale of an embarrassing experience during a date at the Carmarthen Leisure Centre, but he tells it with the skill of an expert raconteur and a hefty dose of charisma and winning self-deprecation
